Note: If three quick beeps sound, you have made an error and the number was not stored. Start again from Step 2.

For each stored number, write the per- son’s or company’s name next to the appropriate location number on the memory dialing card. We recommend you use a pencil in case you want to change the number later.

To erase a stored number, simply store a new number in its place.

Entering a Pause

In some telephone systems, you must dial an access code (9, for example) and wait for a second dial tone before you can dial an outside number. You can store the access code with the phone number. However, you should also store a pause after the access code to allow the outside line time to connect.

To do so, press REDIAL at the appro- priate place to enter a 4-second pause. For a longer pause, press REDIAL ad- ditional times.

Dialing a Memory Number

To dial a number stored in memory, press TALK. When you hear a dial tone, press MEMORY and enter the memory location number for the num- ber you want to dial.

Chain-Dialing Service

Numbers

When calling special services (such as alternate long distance or bank by phone), dial the service’s main number first. Then, at the appropriate place in the call, press MEMORY then the num- ber for the location where the addition- al information is stored.

Testing Stored Emergency Numbers

If you store an emergency service’s number (police department, fire de- partment, ambulance) and you choose to test the stored number, make the test call during the late evening or early morning hours to avoid peak demand periods. Also, remain on the line to ex- plain the reason for your call.
